Hi team,
Could you please tell me the response time of OCL? If a over current occurs, how long will it take to limit the current?

Hi Zeming,
For the OCP , you can refer page 11 of datesheet for reference .
TPS563210A is a DCAP VALLEY control , with sensing the inductor current . If the current is above the OCL, it won't initial a new pulse . So this time is within one cycle of clock at most .

Hi Young,
Thanks for your reply.
So you mean the response time is less than one cycle? But the time length of one cycle depends on VIN, VOUT and other factors, could you please let me know how to calculate the approximate range of response time?

Hi ,
As OCP only happens at heavy load , so the frequency/cycle time is almost constant .The response time is very short , you can check the OCP value with deferent inductor value to check the variance .
And for the response timing , you can refer below fig.
At the worst case , if the inductor valley just above the OCP limit almost near the next cycle , it will need to "wait" near 1 cycle time . Please note that this is the worst case, and you can still take the EC table value which is already considered this variance .

Hi Young,
Thanks for your support, please allow me to ask one more question.
How to calculate the hiccup on and off time? The datasheet descripts 1cycle and 7cycles, it means the clock period (1/fsw)? or it is relative to soft start time, so we should add soft start time to it?
We are doing short circuit test and found the on and off time of hiccup were much longer than we thought.

Hi,
1 cycle means the soft start time,
Hiccup on time equals soft start time, hiccup off time equals 7 times of ss .
